(L-R): Ryan Lalisang, Wu Siu Hong, Keith Saw

"I had a modest start in the Step 2 finals but when I had a few big games, I knew I had a chance to make the
knockout finals. In the match against Keith Saw in Step 4, I was confident I could beat him when I saw he was struggling to repeat the form he showed in Step 3 finals.

"Again in the championship match against Lalisang, I knew it would be a tough match as the Indonesian is a very
good bowler but when he too struggled in the first match, I knew I could win. It's defiitely a good start to the year and I'm looking forward to do well for the rest of the year."
